Horse Breeder Exhibition.

The third annual exhibition of the YER
mont horse breeders at Ratlsnd last week
was a great success IN every respect and
demonstrated that Vermont Is making
rapid strides to the front III the breeding
Of fine road aud trotting horses. There
were nearly four hundred entries of horses
and hardly an ordinary animal among the
number. They were not all trotters by
any means but the majority would be
classed as roadsters single drivers, We
were sorry not to see more With sufficient
size aud weight for carriage horses, for
this class usually brings good prices If
sound aud well built Szs is not neces-
essary for speed or endurance but light
horses cannot draw heavy carriages and
heavy horses are generally too "heavy
travellers" for carriage driving so that
good carriage horses are always 10 great
demand. The Morgans, which made Yer
mon, famous, lacked szs but possessed
great powers Of endurance and made the
best roadslers 10 the world Most of the
the horses at Rutland possessed more or
less Morgan blood aud the aim has been
to increase the size but it is not yet up to
the standard for carriage horses. A little
further effort 10 the direction OF judicious
crossing would still further increase the
size and produce the model carriage horse.
Perhaps Improvement In the direction OF
size might be At the expense OF speed aud
endurance bat the careful breeder will
first decide what class be wishes to pro
duce and breed accordingly. There is
really no limit to the improvement which
can be made 10 any desired direction if
the breeder viii only make careful selec-
tionand breed fol fixed purpose.
Roadsters are also in good demand and
exceptional trotters bring fancy prices.
Lester Fish OF Liza sold to Boston man
last week a three year Old gelding for
$4,000, but be could try a thousand times
before producing another colt that can be
sold at that price. In the mean time he
might produce many medium trotters and
good roaJsters that would bring good
prices and make the business profitable
The aim OF Mr.. Fish is toproduce trottng
stock and his colt was sired by Aristos,
a son Of Daniel Lambert Ii has had but
little handling and has been worked on
farm the past summer, yet IN his green
he won the races for three year

letters constantly coming into camp from

the south, and that they will never raise
any more troops 1t the north. and so on.

secesh for all the trouble in our army by
their dislsyal speeches and letters to the
soldiers, aud jus. to think how they talk
in Congress. The speeches from northern

10 orr company would give the whole
country over to the south If the could only
get home, but let the north all become
true patriots, then soldiers will fight more
brayely, and until that 10 done they will
hang back. Now this is my opinion.

Entered into rest at Dorset, w., Sept.

logg, wife of Alonson Gray, aged nearly
"a years. For many years an intense sui
ferer she has tried patiently to await the
summons OF her Saviour to "come home. ="
In May, 1880. when only sixteen years Of
age she united with the Congregational
church and to the faith then professed she
has clung through all the checkered years
of her life The following March was her
marriage Seven children have been given
to her care, three of whom are now living.
Since the beginning of the year her suffer
ing has been greatly aggravated by the
distress for breath. and this life lost its
comfort for want of needed rest. Her
longing for release has grown stronger and
now how doubly blessed is her home
where "there shall be no more death,
neither shall there be any more pain, for
the former things are passed away"
